Hi,
I'm an unmedicated T2 who doesn't test.
I've been on a low-carb diet for nearly a week. I'm not doing so bad and keeping my carbs down to around 60g per day.
However, on Saturday I have a long (20miles) walk with a few hills and I'm a bit unsure what I should eat. Ordinarily I would take some cheese sandwiches, a bit of malt loaf and some fruit with maybe a cereal bar for emergency. However, I haven't eaten bread for a week and have avoided fruit apart from some apple peel (my wife eat the rest of the apple) and the odd dried apricot.
I'm presently planning to take a pot of Humus and salad with tomato and cheese and a few falafels and nuts.
Will this get me through or should I go back to bread for the day?
Anyone got any good advice?
